“For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
And next year’s words await another voice.” -T.S. Eliot
At last we come to the end of another year. Much has come and gone within the length of this trek around our home star. Perhaps you have experienced personal loss or personal gain – likely a bit of both. We gather to celebrate a new year as a way to create a new beginning from an end. Our hopes hinge on the moment when night turns to day and year turns to year. What do you hope to accomplish in the
coming 365?
Terise Slotkin lives and works in New York City where she has been living in Tribeca since the 1970s. In her early days in New York,

Storme Webber is a two spirit – a term for an indigenous identity that has existed for over a thousand years. This term refers to an
individual who possesses both the male and female spirits within them and those who identify as such have certain responsibilities within the community, particularly with those who are most vulnerable. Webber is a poet and interdisciplinary artist living and working in Seattle. In addition to several published works of poetry, Webber exibits art internationally and is the recipient of many awards for her work. To hear about the depth and complexity of her work – including live readings of some
of her poetry that possesses a musicality that is simply inaccessible on the page – listen to the complete interview.
